Two Cards using a Die Cut

Isn't it great when you can make two cards at the same time.
That's what happened for me today.


First I die cut the 'Texture Woven' die from white card and taped it in place on a white card panel... then blended Mustard Seed Distress Oxide over the die to give a background for my stamped, watercoloured and fussy cut daffodil.  Stamped and gold embossed the sentiment and die cut the panel with crazy double stitched die and attached to a deep gold card.



For the second card I used the die cut that is now yellow from the blended DO and attached it to a white card.  I stamped the daffodil again using the yellow, orange and green DO inks and used them to watercolour the image.  Then to finish added a stamped sentiment strip with foam tape.
I am playing along with Watercooler Wednesday WWC257 - Heidi's challenge Anything Goes with a Feminine Twist.

  3. They're gorgeous!! I love daffodils but unfortunately the high winds we've had have brought down most of mine.. Thankfully the shops all have bunches for £1 and I have them in vases... They are so cheerful... Have a beautiful day

  5. Always great when you can get two cards from a background, Robyn. This woven die makes a fantastic stencil and it looks great on the second card as well. Love the bright yellow and orange of your spring daffodils. xx
